This is an incredible ripoff. The Z8350 had an MSRP of $21 when it launched six and a half damn years ago. What else has it got, a keyboard, track pad, a ten watt power supply? This thing has a bill of materials of like forty bucks. $150 is fucking insulting.
MicroCenter sells their cheapest laptop with Windows 10 included for $79.99 . https://www.microcenter.com/product/646649/evolve-iii-maestr... So... ?
Or buy a reconditioned thin client for 20-30 USD on eBay. Add 10 USD for a keyboard and mouse. The result will be much better than the OP in every way.

Nice to see netbooks making a comeback.

I think ARM would be allowed, but for a layman to consider it a PC, you probably do need the windows capabilities.
Raspberry Pi actually made a model that is built into a keyboard. I think it’s called the 400. And it’s less expensive than the PC linked above
I may personally hate windows with a passion, but if we're talking about the layman's definition of "PC", I think that's still a hard requirement. Especially this side of the "I'm a mac/I'm a PC" commercials.

Interesting! I was considering a raspberry pi 4 for some things but a laptop is more appropriate. Where would I find these?
